For example, when a new word slot module with a slot module 21 is added, if the destination port module in another slot happens to have the same communication address 21 Η, then This will cause problems with the conflict between the two slots. The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a network switching system that can be used to automatically allocate the address of the slot module, and address conflict caused by the cover technology. problem. 0 White In light of the above, the present invention provides a system for automatically distributing a communication port, including a board and a slot module. The above-mentioned board has a plurality of slots and a bus, each slot has a different slot identification code (s i 01 I d ), and the bus bar is connected to the plurality of slots. When the slot module is inserted into one of the plurality of slots, the slot module generates a communication port address according to one of the inserted slots (insertteds 1 〇t) corresponding to the slot ID (corresponding slot ID). A communication port address signal, and the communication address signal is broadcast via the bus. Therefore, other slot modules located in other slots can communicate with the newly added slot module based on the communication address signal. The present invention also provides a slot module for a system for automatically allocating a communication bee address, wherein the system includes at least one slot having a plurality of slots and a bus bar, and the slot module can be inserted into the slot One of the slots.

Invention description (4) :: Multiple slots. The slot module 61 includes a management device 7〇. When the fire 61 is inserted into the slot 51, the management device 7 generates a communication port address signal according to the slot module, and the communication slot is The identification & row 50 is transferred to other slot modules in other slots. The h-number is connected to the bus system via the sink form. For example, if the system is _, the system is 糸, first (when the system is closed, the bus bar 5 is a p 2, the blade type is another) the official device 70 includes an object 71, Used for L. = Identification data, when the slot module 61 receives the slot 通讯 communication bit, it can be compared with the slot identification mom and stored in the identification code data to obtain the corresponding communication address signal. , the address identification address identification data 'When the slot module 61 is inserted according to the communication bit 7 will generate different communication address signal slots' then the management device: function and other slots located in other slots; "The slot module 6i will have the problem of communication address conflict. ^, the same force, and no system, can make the address signal according to the invention in each plug-in " ° can effectively solve ' The technology '2' generates the only communication and the management device 70 obtains the corresponding communication shortcomings. 2. When the communication address signal passes through the bus bar 5 〇w address 埠 ^ number, then this slot module, for example, the management device 7〇. Other styles in other slots will The communication address signal 'is based on the other slot module of the other slot of the broadcaster, ^ frequency is sent to inform the location of the address signal and the newly added slot module: = module according to this In addition, the slot and the signal of each slot are different. For example, if the board 5 has a logic signal to apply three pins (Pin) to the slot, it can be used in each slot. It is - to indicate the different logic 0696-A20473TWl (4.5); QCI-93039-TW; Lukelee p^ page 8 case number 93113329__ year and month correction _ five, invention description (5) state; for example, if When the high-state signal is applied as logic 1, the low-state signal can be represented as a logical 〇. Therefore, when the slot module 61 is inserted into one of the slots, then one of the 逻辑~111 logic signals can be obtained. The slot module 61 can generate a unique communication address signal according to the unique logic signal. It can be seen that the slot module 61' according to the unique communication address signal can be avoided. The communication address caused by the communication address conflicts with the address, because The system of the present invention can effectively improve the disadvantages of the prior art. Figure 3 is a flow chart showing the control method according to the present invention. The above control method is used to control a slot mode of an automatic distribution communication address system. The group 'this system includes at least one board having a plurality of slots. First, 'check if the slot module 61 is inserted into one of the slots (step S40 0). If the slot module 61 is inserted into the same When one of the slots is one, a slot identifier corresponding to one of the inserted slots is read (step S4 1 0). A corresponding communication address signal is generated according to the corresponding slot identifier '(step S42〇), And transmitting the communication address signal to the other slot module of the other slot (step S430).
